BC = before christ AD = Anno Domini (year of our Lord) we are in the year 2011, time before year 1 was BC time afterwards (what we live in) is AD
The time span from 220 BC to 220 AD is 440 years. This is calculated by adding the 220 years from 220 BC to 1 BC and the 220 years from AD 1 to 220 AD, since there is no year 0 in the transition from BC to AD.
58 years are between 30 BC and AD 30. The first thing you need to remember is that there is no year 0; the year before AD 1 is 1 BC. So the years between 30 BC and AD 30 are... 29 BC, 28 BC, 27 BC, ..., 2 BC, 1 BC, AD1, AD 2, ..., AD 27, AD 28, AD 29 29 BC through 1 BC is 29 years, and AD 1 through AD 29 is 29 years. 29 years + 29 years = 58 years
BC = Before Christ. AD = Anno Domini (latin) the year of Christ's birth.
To calculate the years between 500 BC and AD 500, you add the years in BC to the years in AD. There are 500 years from 500 BC to 1 BC and another 500 years from AD 1 to AD 500. Therefore, the total is 500 + 500 = 1000 years.
AD
Nothing. There was no time period between BC and AD. 1 BC was followed by 1 AD. There was no year zero or any gap between BC and AD.
Ad because bc started after
Take the BC year and add it to the AD year with present year and bc & ad
AD
BC = before christ AD = Anno Domini (year of our Lord) we are in the year 2011, time before year 1 was BC time afterwards (what we live in) is AD
Alphabetically, AD is first; in terms of time, BC is first.
BC is the time before jesus christ was born therefore BC is BEFORE CHRIST and AD refers to the time after christ was born
There was no period between BC and AD. One followed the other. After 1 BC was the year 1 AD. There was no year zero or anything else between BC and AD. BC is Before Christ. AD is Anno Domini, the time of Our Lord, so basically from when he was born. So there is no time period in between before he was born and when he was born.
AD or Anno Domini in latin means 'in the year of our lord'. 0 AD is when jesus is supposed to have died. all time before that is now known as BC and all time after is AD. BC (before christ)
AD is a time after the BC's and Persia is just a plave.
So long after the AD time that there is no AD in front or after it.
